Yea I think the problem I came across when researching setting up a forum was IPv6 would be a lot more trouble when coming to make ssl certificates if I recall correctly, perhaps something related to ports?
Interesting, thanks.
Haha that sounds like just about the time I got into buying vpses. Huh? ram is expensive now? How times change. I still have it as cheap in my mind as 2013 is the last time I made a computer and would have bought any.
Why did RAM prices increase? Some scarcity of resources? Another victim of crypto mining ASICS?
Ah here is a post I remembered from an earlier thread of mine as I was looking through it, which seems to be a good summation, I remembered the post, generally that openvz is out, but not the details: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4410477/#Comment_4410477
Yet you can buy a VPS for less than $7/year that comes with IPv4.
It's priced like cat food.
My friends recently bitched about the cost of cat food. I'll tell them it's doable for $7/year. Thanks!
Tell me that VPS please!
My mother too, she told that they charge the same but reduced the serving size per can.

Look at the offers category, help yourself a little. The $7 thing is a meme, you probably don't want to waste time with that shittery (trust me bro) but there's several under $20/yr.
That sounds strange, setting up ssl certificates relies on domain name, not ip, so it should make no difference if it's ip4 or ipv6.
The ports are the same on ipv6 as on ip4.
I built a PC in 2013 with 16GB of RAM. 16GB is still a common amount in 2025.
I like to super-size RAM. My current 285K PC has 96GB of RAM. And an integrated GPU since I don't game!
AI boom. DRAM manufacturers would rather make RAM for AI GPUs than consumer PCs because of "higher margins."
It's like how GPUs were short during the crypto mining boom, since miners were more profitable than gamers.
But what they forget is the gaming/DIY scene is your long-term repeat customer. But instead Micron killed Crucial. Darn, I liked Crucial RAM.
Remember: Anthrophic may die if AI isn't the future, or if the VC subsidies end. But Asus most likely won't become Compaq or Gateway.
I was never a huge OpenVZ fan, especially for an unmanaged VPS. I do however use Incus in my homelab.
A lot of my friend's cats are too fat and will continue to eat anything put in front of them. Maybe this will be correct portion control.
I'm also guessing he's losing money on these, whether he knows it yet or not.
Potentially easier. You can have conflicts if trying to run multiple webservers on IPV4 port 443, but with /64 IPv6 to run port 443, they can have as many webservers as practical.
